4 Contact: tpmdd-devel@lists.sf.net
5 Description: The device/ directory under a specific TPM instance exposes
6 the properties of that TPM chip
9 What: /sys/class/misc/tpmX/device/active
12 Contact: tpmdd-devel@lists.sf.net
13 Description: The "active" property prints a '1' if the TPM chip is accepting
14 commands. An inactive TPM chip still contains all the state of
15 an active chip (Storage Root Key, NVRAM, etc), and can be
16 visible to the OS, but will only accept a restricted set of
17 commands. See the TPM Main Specification part 2, Structures,
18 section 17 for more information on which commands are
21 What: /sys/class/misc/tpmX/device/cancel
24 Contact: tpmdd-devel@lists.sf.net
25 Description: The "cancel" property allows you to cancel the currently
26 pending TPM command. Writing any value to cancel will call the
27 TPM vendor specific cancel operation.
29 What: /sys/class/misc/tpmX/device/caps
32 Contact: tpmdd-devel@lists.sf.net
33 Description: The "caps" property contains TPM manufacturer and version info.
37 Manufacturer: 0x53544d20
39 Firmware version: 8.16
41 Manufacturer is a hex dump of the 4 byte manufacturer info
42 space in a TPM. TCG version shows the TCG TPM spec level that
43 the chip supports. Firmware version is that of the chip and
44 is manufacturer specific.
46 What: /sys/class/misc/tpmX/device/durations
49 Contact: tpmdd-devel@lists.sf.net
50 Description: The "durations" property shows the 3 vendor-specific values
51 used to wait for a short, medium and long TPM command. All
52 TPM commands are categorized as short, medium or long in
53 execution time, so that the driver doesn't have to wait
54 any longer than necessary before starting to poll for a
59 3015000 4508000 180995000 [original]
61 Here the short, medium and long durations are displayed in
62 usecs. "[original]" indicates that the values are displayed
63 unmodified from when they were queried from the chip.
64 Durations can be modified in the case where a buggy chip
65 reports them in msec instead of usec and they need to be
66 scaled to be displayed in usecs. In this case "[adjusted]"
67 will be displayed in place of "[original]".
69 What: /sys/class/misc/tpmX/device/enabled
72 Contact: tpmdd-devel@lists.sf.net
73 Description: The "enabled" property prints a '1' if the TPM chip is enabled,
74 meaning that it should be visible to the OS. This property
75 may be visible but produce a '0' after some operation that
78 What: /sys/class/misc/tpmX/device/owned
81 Contact: tpmdd-devel@lists.sf.net
82 Description: The "owned" property produces a '1' if the TPM_TakeOwnership
83 ordinal has been executed successfully in the chip. A '0'
84 indicates that ownership hasn't been taken.
86 What: /sys/class/misc/tpmX/device/pcrs
89 Contact: tpmdd-devel@lists.sf.net
90 Description: The "pcrs" property will dump the current value of all Platform
91 Configuration Registers in the TPM. Note that since these
92 values may be constantly changing, the output is only valid
93 for a snapshot in time.

104 The number of PCRs and hex bytes needed to represent a PCR
105 value will vary depending on TPM chip version. For TPM 1.1 and
106 1.2 chips, PCRs represent SHA-1 hashes, which are 20 bytes
107 long. Use the "caps" property to determine TPM version.
109 What: /sys/class/misc/tpmX/device/pubek
111 KernelVersion: 2.6.12
112 Contact: tpmdd-devel@lists.sf.net
113 Description: The "pubek" property will return the TPM's public endorsement
114 key if possible. If the TPM has had ownership established and
115 is version 1.2, the pubek will not be available without the
116 owner's authorization. Since the TPM driver doesn't store any
117 secrets, it can't authorize its own request for the pubek,
118 making it unaccessible. The public endorsement key is gener-
119 ated at TPM menufacture time and exists for the life of the

163 KernelVersion: 2.6.17
164 Contact: tpmdd-devel@lists.sf.net
165 Description: The "temp_deactivated" property returns a '1' if the chip has
166 been temporarily dectivated, usually until the next power
167 cycle. Whether a warm boot (reboot) will clear a TPM chip
168 from a temp_deactivated state is platform specific.
170 What: /sys/class/misc/tpmX/device/timeouts
173 Contact: tpmdd-devel@lists.sf.net
174 Description: The "timeouts" property shows the 4 vendor-specific values
175 for the TPM's interface spec timeouts. The use of these
176 timeouts is defined by the TPM interface spec that the chip
181 750000 750000 750000 750000 [original]
183 The four timeout values are shown in usecs, with a trailing
184 "[original]" or "[adjusted]" depending on whether the values
185 were scaled by the driver to be reported in usec from msecs.
